This is how I will remember Layne. This is from September 2012. I will remember the smile and the blue eyes (not the dark, foreboding color the was visible at the end). I will remember the casualness of the pose and setting. He's comfortable. I will remember the Padres hat that was worn so much it faded to a different color. I always thought of it representing San Diego and the beach more than for the team it represented. I will remember the guy with a body that had muscles (not the most recent skin and bones version). I look at this picture and I can almost hear his laugh.
